Wombles_ The
Platform: Commodore 64
Gametype: Undefined
_________________________

It's a normal day at the Wombles burrow. Orinoco is very hungry. Wellington is outside dodging the human beings, Great Uncle Bulgaria is hoping that someone will have dropped a copy of today's 'The Times'. 

 It is time for the young Wombles to go out onto the common to find the litter. Great Uncle Bulgaria gives them a special task to look out for a copy of the The Times and to bring it back as soon as they can. Tobermory tells then that he will also be out and about and will need then to find various items, for the new marvellous invention that he is working on. He gives them the usual warning.... "Watch out for the human beings". 

 When the game starts you take control and move Orinoco around the common. He starts the game with three pies for his tea. If you do not work hard Great Uncle Bulgaria will confiscate the pies. If all three pies are confiscated then the game is over. You can see an overhead view of the common which will help you to find your way about if you get lost. You will see markers to show your position, Wellington's position and the position of any human beings on the common. 

 You must try to find and pick up three different objects but watch out for those human beings!! 

 1. Litter 
 This is blowing about the common. You must press the 'pick-up' key as the litter passes over Orinoco in order to pick it up. If you are successful you will earn bonus points. If you are unsuccessful then the litter will carry on off the screen. Note that you can press the 'pick-up' key only once for each piece of litter so time it carefully. 

 2. Tobermory's Special Item 
 Tobermory's face will appear at the top of the sceen and will ask you to find a special items for him in a short time. The race is then on between yourself and Wellington to be the first to find the item. The time left to find the item will be counting down on the screen. If Wellingtin finds the item first then Orinoco will lose one of the pies. If you find the item you will earn a big bonus but if it is not found at all before the time runs out then the game is over. Whoever finds the item then takes it over to Tobermory who will be somewhere nearby. 

 3. The Times 
 This is the ultimate aim of th game. You have to find a copy of the Times and return with it to the burrow. When you or Wellington finds the paper you most both head back to the burrow as quickly as possible. If Wellington has found the paper then you can chase him and try to get the paper off him but if you have found it he will be trying as hard as possible to get it from you. If you get back to the burrow with the paper you will earn a big bonus. 

 Good luck!!! 

 Remeber you're a Womble
